Looking at a Giulia?

Population figures cannot tell you whether one particular car is taxed, MOT-valid or safe to buy.

Check its registration free for the official tax, MOT and mileage record. If the car is still worth pursuing, the optional £9.99 full history check adds outstanding-finance, stolen and insurance write-off checks.

Wondering whether one particular Giulia is off the road? A free SORN check shows whether it is currently SORN, taxed or untaxed.

Is the Giulia disappearing?

8,105 are licensed as of 2026 Q1 — the highest count in the published series, so the Giulia is still arriving on UK roads rather than leaving them. That is up 35% in the five years since 2021 Q1. A further 376 are declared SORN — 1 in 23 of the 8,481 still on the DVLA record is off the road, laid up, part-restored or waiting to be sold.

A falling population is worth knowing before you buy: it usually means fewer donor cars, fewer specialists and slower parts supply, and it is why a good example of a scarce model can hold its price while a neglected one is hard to sell at any price.

Giulia MOT pass rate

In 2024, 85.9% of 5,278 Alfa Romeo Giulia MOTs passed first time — above the 71.2% UK average. Pass rate moves with age: 87.5% of cars aged 3–5 years passed first time, against 84.9% aged 6–9 years.

  • Condition — 4.2% of tests. Corrosion, damage or wear on a tested component. Worth seeing in person, as the cost ranges from trivial to structural.
  • Headlamp Aim — 3.9% of tests. Headlights pointing too high or low. Cheap to adjust, and common on every make.
  • Tread Depth — 2.9% of tests. Tyres below the 1.6mm legal limit. Budget for tyres, and treat it as a sign of how the car was maintained.
  • Mechanical Brake Components — 1.6% of tests. Worn discs, pads or callipers. Routine wear, but it should be priced into the deal.
